Arcade

notes: the party (including steddie) is going to spend an evening at the arcade. of course they have to invite robin and nancy as well. robin and nancy had some unspoken tension, however. a couple weeks before the arcade hang out Robin and Nancy had hung out the whole day and relatively had a very fun time until the two kissed and then left for home. the kiss meant so much to the two of them but they were at a loss for words on what to say or tell eachother so they split for a couple weeks until tonight, being left to solve their tensions.

this was a longer fic than normal and i probably have to go back and proofread here soon, but in the meantime, enjoy!! ^^

Robin sighed, looking out the passenger side of Steve's car window anxiously. As fun as this initial little "get together" sounded, it was most definitely not going to be fun. Robin was terrified out of her mind. It was just about 5 weeks ago when she had built up the courage to kiss the girl of her dreams and seemingly lose her all in one day, and now, she'd have to see her again and feel the guilt from that day reoccur.

"Robin!" Steve exclaimed, trying to get Robin's attention as he drove. Robin let out a small yelp, turning to face Steve "Y-Yeah?"
"You seem super tense about all this.. I really don't think there's much to worry abou-"
"No but there is, Steve. There is so much to worry about and i'm panicking out of my freaking mind!! I mean, jeez, it took me SO long to finally kiss Nancy. I should've known not to kiss a straight girl in the first place. Now EVERYTHING is going down hill and I'm terrified to see her.  What if she hates me now? What if she like- takes back all our progress and we won't be best friends anymore?! What if-"
"And what if she likes you?" Steve interrupts Robin's panic, looking over at her for a moment before looking back. "According to Mike she hasn't left her house since that day which I think you and I both know that isn't anything she would do. Whatsoever." Robin rolls her eyes. "It could ALSO be because, well, I don't know, she doesn't want the whole town to think that she is a homosexual?!"

Steve rolls his eyes in return before taking a hard right, pulling into the arcade. "Listen, just try to talk to her tonight. Rejection or not I promise it'll be okay. I'm here for you, Ro." Robin smiles "Y'know, for some douchebag like you, that was actually really sweet. Thank you. A-And I'm here for you too." They both share a small smile before getting out of the car. "Steeeeeve!" Yells Eddie in the near distance, running into Steve's arms and hugging him. "Hi!!" He exclaims to his boyfriend, giving him a sweet smile. "Why, hello there handsome." Steve says in reply, kissing Eddie sweetly.

Robin scoffs watching the pair out of jealousy. But not because she wanted Steve. Because she wanted that with someone else, a certain someone who she'd sacrifice her life for.  And that's when she saw her for the first time in what felt like eons, Nancy Wheeler. Nance looked over to Robin for a moment, smiling as she watched Robin look away quickly. Nancy grew a disappointed expression as she too dropped her gaze on the other girl.

After the group chatted around for few minutes , (besides robin and nancy of course) they decided to finally head inside. The older teenagers mainly remained in a group whilst Mike, Will, Lucas, El, and Max ran off to play around. Of course, Eddie joined them too every now and then.

Steve and Nancy stood near the entrance, alone. Eddie was currently playing with the others and Robin? She was nowhere to be seen.
"She's been worried sick." Steve tells Nancy in a hushed tone. "She thinks you hate her and that she screwed up big time by finally kissing you." Nancy shakes her head, her disappointed look from before returning."That was the best thing she could've ever done. Steve, I have feelings for Robin. I-I always have.  And right now she just feels so out of reach..."

Steve bites his lip, thinking. "This is all clearly a huge misunderstanding... I think you need to find her and talk to her. She's clearly way too terrified to talk to you. Poor thing." Nancy nods in agreement. "But.. Where the hell would she be?"
